Also need to notch the shoe retainer (or use a later retainer) to clear the forward spring.
Rich... you caught me off guard with this data! in all my research and old school instructions, I have not come across this self adjusting hardware kit. Is that something that further improves the braking ability of the 1956 F100 brake set up. I note that the gear seems to apply to the late 60's. What can you tell me?
